dear all
here is a poem given to me just before i had my 7th child
i thought i would share it with list so if anybody knows any mothers with
a large family they could give it to them.

Count Your Blessings
If the good Lord sends down a wee lassie to you,
And then should happen to send ye another.
Ye'll know He's approvin' o' ye as a Mother.
Then if He chooses to offer ye three,
'Tis a diligent Mother ye happen to be,
But if by some chance He should trust ye with four,
Faith I'd not be surprised if He'd trust ye with more,
But devil a few are the women alive
That He's ever considered o' trustin' with five,
He looks the world over and carefully picks,
Just one in a thousand He'd ever give six,
And be sure if He'd ever should bless ye with seven,
Ye're a saint and ye're fit for the glories of Heaven.
